1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

unlabelledHip fracture incidence in the capital city of Serbia was assessed over a period of 10 years (2000-2009). Crude annual incidence rates increased significantly for all ages and both sexes (p = 0.002). Age-adjusted rates also showed a steady increase. The mean rate of annual change for age-adjusted rates was 8.6 % (95 %CI 7.5-9.7) in males, 8.0 % (95 %CI 7.4-8.6) in females, and 8.2 % (95 %CI 7.7-8.7) in the total population.

introductionThe aim of this study was to estimate the incidence rate and trend of hip fractures in the population of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia.

methodsData sources were the official statistics of the Public Health Institute in Belgrade. The patient's age, gender, residence, hospital admission, and diagnosis were registered for each hospital admission. Population estimates were based on census data from 2002 and on published estimates for the intercensus years. The annual incidence (crude) rates and age- and sex-specific incidence rates were calculated with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) and age-adjusted incidence rates for persons over the age of 50 years were computed.

resultsA significantly increasing trend of crude incidence rates for all ages was observed in males (p = 0.002), females (p = 0.001), and overall (p = 0.002). The proportion of trochanteric fractures rose significantly with age in women (p < 0.0001), whereas it decreased nonsignificantly in men ≥70 years (p = 0.44). The age-adjusted incidence rates (per 100,000 in subjects ≥50 years old) showed a steady increase. The mean rate of annual change for age-adjusted rates was 8.6 % (95 %CI 7.5-9.7) in males, 8.0 % (95 %CI 7.4-8.6) in females, and 8.2 % (95 %CI 7.7-8.7) in the total population.

conclusionHip fracture incidence continues to increase. In view of the rapid aging of the population, it is necessary to implement a comprehensive preventive policy in our community.
